I received some $2 2012 Poppy coins today as part of a trade, all have the same cuds on the Obv and one has a cud on the reverse.
$2 2012 - Trio Obv

$2 2012 - Rev Poppy Cud - The cud is on the top right petal, and extends across almost the width of the two centre segments.

Great job Nancy- I hadn't even thought of looking at the 'poppy' coins for cuds.! Will put another job on the list for tomorrow.!:idea:
I still haven't really come across many of these. I shall have to look at those I do find more closely, thanks Nancy.

That looks very much in the same place as the cud on the 2008 double tail roos.
Me thinks the start of a another double tail coin.........
can you see these cuds by the naked eye?
yep sure can , in the half lit clubs you can see something there , so i take them home to the glass and have a better look with better lighting .. ,, kel ,,
I got 6 of these coins from the boozer at Christmas Creek ( Between Newman and Nullagine WA).
2 of these had oddities on the las "2" of 2012, the top of the 2 is badly formed and there is a small cud at the base of the "2".

Thats a nice on Trout. You did pretty well to spot that! Nancy will be drooling over that one for sure.

I have 2 of these so it looks like Nevol will get one next time I send stuff :angel:
I have a mint bags worth of these I havent checked yet, I'll do that tomorrow.
I checked out all my other poppy coins nothin except this on an RSL coin.
Not sure what this is all about?
Feel free to step in here anytime Nevol:angel:

Not sure what that is Trout. I can see a line across 3 of the numbers, but I don't know what caused it, maybe a scratch?
The cud in the bottom of the 2 is nice. I like it! :angel:

That's impressive. There are quite a lot of fills on these things, but not that good. Well done. :)

Thank you I thought it was quite impressive too. A friend is desperately wanting it from me already as he can't seem to find any errors on the coronations yet and he's gone through alot of bags. He's offered me $20 but I'm thinking it could get more lol.

Linda got $52 IIRC for that $1 fill she posted about here, and it wasn't as impressive.

I think I might have to tell him I want more haha.. Might be having a dumb moment here but what does IIRC stand for? Was Linds an auction?

If I Recall Correctly. And I didn't... here's her post:
Quote from: 'Linda' pid='32957' dateline='1383176326'Ok busy busy!! But just saw Fulvio posted and was waiting for me to spill the beans on what I got for my filled T $2 coin on Ebay,
I was thinking about $15ish , but was very very happy when the final bid was $47.50 :)
Wow nice score for just one letter missing, I think I will make it $40 per missing letter hahaha
Yes, I think Linda did very very well.
$6 was all I could get for mine ....

Next time perhaps :angel:

I think maybe it was the bits of 0 left over that brought the price down for you. Shoulda got the chisel set out and finished the job mate! :diablo:

Lol :laugh2: ..... yes indeedy, I might have to send some off to Troutshed mint for 'enhancement'.
What were you hoping to reach in the auction for your $1 Unicorn?
No really sure MattGold, but $6 was my starting price (hence the lowest I thought it worth) and it did sell so it helps pay the medical bills.
A bit of the luck of the draw really as far as expectations ...... one week a coin might go to $19, a similar coin a few weeks later might only make perhaps $3.25. It just depends on the competing bidders.
Makes me consider my mates offer but Linda scoring what she did for her $2 is making me want to sell it for more lol
Here are a couple interesting $2 I found recently when I noodled the coins from my purse.
First is a $2 2002 with extra metal all over the Rev, not exactly uncommon as I'm sure I've got more of them somewhere.
(http://www.australian-coins.net/gallery/albums/userpics/10007/_2_2002_Rev_Metal_All_Over_Multi.jpg)
Then $2 2006 Rev, with the Elder missing the outline of his left eye socket, can't recall seeing this one before, but possibly other members may have reported it. 2010 & 2013 close-up images are just for comparison purposes.

Found a couple odd $2 while trying to get things sorted, not sure what to classify them as.
$2 1988 Obv with an Inner Ring, almost all the way round and a smaller section on the reverse.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
I had tagged this as an error, but it could just be deliberate PMD with partial letters on the Obv and sloping rims in places that sort of resemble a collar error. :scratch_one-s_head:
